Chapter 1471: Chapter 1571

I rolled my eyes.

“You haven’t seen werewolves in so long.

Don’t you remember what matters? If I don’t go back with Andrew, what happens to Abby? Do you want her to cry non-stop?”

Ivy was speechless.

As we approached downtown, the usual noise and activity came through the window.

I was worried about my daughter’s safety when Andrew, who had been quiet until now, said, “Debra, I’m sorry.

”

He wouldn’t meet my eyes, his voice full of regret.

“Actually, Abby is behaving really well.

She didn’t cry.

I lied to you earlier.

I’m very sorry.

”

I was shocked and confused.

“Why would you lie to me? I don’t understand.

”

I always thought Andrew was honest, which was why I had trusted him immediately, without any doubts.

He didn’t hide his reasons.

Taking a deep breath, Andrew admitted openly, “It’s because of the man named Caleb.

”

“What? I was still baffled.

“Why?”

From where I stood, Caleb was undoubtedly strong, but Andrew wasn’t someone to be underestimated either.

Predicting a victor between them was a tough call, and fortunately, there was no need for conflict since they weren’t enemies.

Andrew began to clarify, “It’s clear Caleb knows you and has some connection to you, But with Shirley around earlier, I was concerned that our story about you being my fiancee would crumble.

If that happened, all my efforts would be for nothing, and I’d be cornered with no way to avoid marrying Shirley.

”

He sighed before continuing, “I really didn’t see any other way out, Debra.

I hope you can understand.

”

It didn’t feel fair to hold a grudge against him after hearing his side.

Ivy expressed her discontent.

“Even so, misleading us about Abby’s safety isn’t right.

You were so harsh to Caleb earlier.

”

Feeling a sense of resignation, I shrugged.

“I didn’t see any other option.

After all, Andrew did save our lives, and he had a legitimate reason for his deception.

”

Outside, the city’s neon lights flickered across the car windows.

I watched them, deep in thought, haunted by the image of Caleb’s disappointed and shocked expression.

If he truly were my husband, he would probably be very let down by me.

After a prolonged silence filled with heavy thoughts, I finally voiced another concern.

“Mr.

Pierce, with everything going on, have you caught any new updates about the other world?”

Andrew answered cautiously, “We don’t have all the details yet.

We’re just bracing ourselves for what’s to come.

From what I gather, werewolves and half-blood witches live in the other world.

Werewolves rule the world.

”

“Werewolves?”

Somehow, I couldn’t help thinking of the man just now.

“Was that man…”

Andrew seemed to anticipate my question.

He cut me off, saying, “If I’m not wrong, that impressive man we just saw could be a werewolf from that world.

”

I nodded and asked, “Do you know anything else that might help?”
